A non-denominational “Support the Church’’ movement designed to stimulate interest in church activi ties and increase the church at tendance starts this week in the Butler Herald. This program, prepared by a special service bureau, is being used regularly in hundreds of daily and weekly newspapers from coast to coast, and has been running for from two to ten years continu ously in many of these papers. The theme of the campaign is kept on a non-denominational bas is so that it carries a message suitable for all faiths. Taylor county merchants and business firms who are cooperating in the sponsorship of the timely, beautifully written messages feel that they will serve a definite pur pose in reminding the citizens of this county of the necessity of strong churches. Support of the churches is sound business in any community. It does not take an oracle to note the sta bility of a community with strong active churches. The “Support the Church” fea ture will appear in these columns for the next few weeks—probably indefinitely. This program has prov en quite popular in many communi ties throughout America.
